General

Students must register on-line via the schedule under Current Classes. No walk-ins or verbal reservations.  To register for a particular class, click or tap the highlighted class code, then at the next page click the REGISTER button.
  • If you don't see a highlighted link for a class, or if a link takes you to a page without a REGISTER button and with a message saying Registration is closed,  it means registration for that class has not yet opened. Check the opening dates listed at the top of the schedule page, and try again later.

  • If the link takes you a page with a JOIN WAITLIST button (instead of a REGISTER button), it means the class is full.  We do sometimes get cancellations, so click JOIN WAITLIST  if you want to be notified of any last-minute openings.  The waitlist request pertains only to the current class; it will not carry over to a future class.  Do not send payment for a position on the waitlist.

Your Account

The first time you register for a class, the system will create an account for you with your e-mail address serving as your username. The account serves only to store your contact information (we do not collect any financial information). You will have to jump through a few familiar hoops when the account is first created (prove you are not a robot, agree to a Terms & Conditions page), and the system will assign you a password. From then on, whenever you register for a class you will log in using that same e-mail address and password.

Need to change the e-mail address or other contact info we have on file for you? Log in to your account (the Help page explains how), click the View profile link, then click Edit profile.

Communicating with Us

Confirmations, invoices, and other announcements about your registration will be e-mailed to the address you provide.

Payment

Payment may be done either on-line (by credit card) or off-line (by check/money order sent through U.S. mail).

  • To pay by credit card, select the PAY ONLINE option once you get to the Review and confirm page. Credit card payments are processed through PayPal (you do not need to have or use a personal PayPal account).

  • To pay by check/money order, select the INVOICE ME option once you get to the Review and confirm page. An invoice will be e-mailed to you. Please pay within 7 days. Make checks payable to SOTC and mail to the address given on the invoice.

Please don't mail cash!

A $20 fee will be charged for returned (bounced) checks or credit-card chargebacks.

Contingencies

If your registration is contingent on (say) passing a run-through or class graduation that hasn't occurred yet, don't wait! Go ahead and register, but choose the INVOICE ME option (rather than PAY ONLINE), and tell the Registrar about the situation. Payment can wait until you have had the run-through or passed the graduation.

If you are not a member and the class you want has any kind of prerequisite, you'll need to obtain a permission code from the Registrar.
